Church of St Peter in the Forest, Anglican church in Walthamstow, United Kingdom
The Church of St Peter in the Forest stands next to Epping Forest, constructed with London stock brick in an Italianate architectural style.
Founded in 1840 as a chapel by William Wilson, the church gained independence in 1844 and received Grade II listed status in 2009.
The church hosts a children's ministry called Rocks, supported by the Red Balloon Foundation, integrating music, drama, and art activities.
Daily prayers take place at 9:30 a.m., with services streamed live on social media for remote participation from the community.
The interior features modifications by Martin Travers from 1936, including a west window depicting Christ the King added in 1958.
